Première mondiale, Citroën sort en 1951 une fourgonnette à Traction Avant, dérivée de la 2CV tant plébiscitée ! Projet réussi, après celui avorté du petit fourgon Type G.
A world first, in 1951 Citroën brings out a delivery van with front-wheel drive, a by-product of the much loved 2CV! A successful project after the little Type G van, which was aborted.
Practical, robust, easy to maintain, economical… The 2CV delivery van has all the qualities of a cult car.
Its journey over 3 decades has increased the by-products. The 2CV AZU equipped with a 425 cm3 engine from the 2CV AZ in 1954. The 2CV AK 350 in 1963, equipped with a 602 cc engine from the Ami 6, replaced by the 2CV AKS 400 in 1970. These bulkier by-products superior in payload complete the range of their performances, always with style: they follow the evolutions of the 2CV Saloon throughout its career.
Our beautiful delivery vans fade out in 1977 in the face of the Acadiane, a perfect blend between the AKS and the Dyane.
